The /usr/lib/cron/.proto contains this ulimit: ulimit $l but I don't know where l is taken (it seems to be the user's standard ulimit). In /usr/spool/cron/atjobs the ulimit=100000 corresponding to my effective limit is set. Does one know why this fails? Please answer by email, I'll summarize for the net. -- Christophe Wolfhugel (on irc: Zolf) | Email: wolf@grasp1.univ-lyon1.fr INSA Lyon - Departement Informatique | "Take care when driving, 90% of the" 69621 Villeurbanne Cedex, France | "births are accidents!"
